RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909
1 Then, too, the queen of Sheba, having heard of the fame of Solomon in the name of the Lord, arrived to test him with enigmas.
1 Y OYENDO la reina de Seba la fama de Salomón en el nombre de Jehová, vino á probarle con preguntas.
2 And entering into Jerusalem with a great retinue, and with riches, and with camels carrying aromatics, and with an exceedingly great quantity of gold and precious stones, she went to king Solomon. And she spoke to him all that she held in her heart.
2 Y vino á Jerusalem con muy grande comitiva, con camellos cargados de especias, y oro en grande abundancia, y piedras preciosas: y como vino á Salomón, propúsole todo lo que en su corazón tenía.
3 And Solomon taught her, in all the words that she had proposed to him. There was not any word which was able to be hidden from the king, or which he did not answer for her.
3 Y Salomón le declaró todas sus palabras: ninguna cosa se le escondió al rey, que no le declarase.
4 Then, when the queen of Sheba saw all the wisdom of Solomon, and the house that he had built,
4 Y cuando la reina de Seba vió toda la sabiduría de Salomón, y la casa que había edificado,
5 and the food of his table, and the dwelling places of his servants, and the rows of his ministers, and their apparel, and the cupbearers, and the holocausts that he was offering in the house of the Lord, she had no longer any spirit in her.
5 Asimismo la comida de su mesa, el asiento de sus siervos, el estado y vestidos de los que le servían, sus maestresalas, y sus holocaustos que sacrificaba en la casa de Jehová, quedóse enajenada.
6 And she said to the king: “The word is true, which I have heard in my own land,
6 Y dijo al rey: Verdad es lo que oí en mi tierra de tus cosas y de tu sabiduría;
7 about your words and your wisdom. But I did not believe those who explained it to me, until I went myself and saw it with my own eyes. And I have discovered that the half of it has not been told to me: your wisdom and works are greater than the report that I have heard.
7 Mas yo no lo creía, hasta que he venido, y mis ojos han visto, que ni aun la mitad fué lo que se me dijo: es mayor tu sabiduría y bien que la fama que yo había oído.
8 Blessed are your men, and blessed are your servants, who stand before you always, and who hear your wisdom.
8 Bienaventurados tus varones, dichosos estos tus siervos, que están continuamente delante de ti, y oyen tu sabiduría.
9 Blessed is the Lord your God, whom you have greatly pleased, and who has placed you upon the throne of Israel. For the Lord loves Israel forever, and he has appointed you as king, so that you may accomplish judgment and justice.”
9 Jehová tu Dios sea bendito, que se agradó de ti para ponerte en el trono de Israel; porque Jehová ha amado siempre á Israel, y te ha puesto por rey, para que hagas derecho y justicia.
10 Then she gave the king one hundred twenty talents of gold, and an exceedingly great amount of aromatics and precious stones. No greater quantity of aromatics was ever again brought forth as these, which the queen of Sheba gave to king Solomon.
10 Y dió ella al rey ciento y veinte talentos de oro, y muy mucha especiería, y piedras preciosas: nunca vino tan grande copia de especias, como la reina de Seba dió al rey Salomón.
11 Then, too, the navy of Hiram, which carried gold from Ophir, brought an exceedingly great quantity of thyine wood and precious stones from Ophir.
11 La flota de Hiram que había traído el oro de Ophir, traía también de Ophir muy mucha madera de brasil, y piedras preciosas.
12 And the king made, from the thyine wood, the posts of the house of the Lord, and of the house of the king, and citharas and lyres for the musicians. No thyine trees of this kind were ever again brought forth or seen, even to the present day.
12 Y de la madera de brasil hizo el rey balaustres para la casa de Jehová, y para las casas reales, arpas también y salterios para los cantores: nunca vino tanta madera de brasil, ni se ha visto hasta hoy.
13 Then king Solomon gave the queen of Sheba all that she desired and requested of him, aside from what he himself had offered to her from his royal bounty. And she returned and went away to her own land, with her servants.
13 Y el rey Salomón dió á la reina de Seba todo lo que quiso, y todo lo que pidió, además de lo que Salomón le dió como de mano del rey Salomón. Y ella se volvió, y se fué á su tierra con sus criados.
14 Now the weight of the gold that was brought to Solomon each year was six hundred sixty-six talents of gold,
14 El peso del oro que Salomón tenía de renta cada un año, era seiscientos sesenta y seis talentos de oro;
15 aside from what was brought to him by the men who were over the tributes, and by the merchants, and by those selling every kind of small item, and by all the kings of Arabia, and by the rulers of the land.
15 Sin [lo de] los mercaderes, y de la contratación de especias, y de todos los reyes de Arabia, y de los principales de la tierra.
16 Also, king Solomon made two hundred large shields from the purest gold. He dispensed six hundred shekels of gold for the layers of one shield.
16 Hizo también el rey Salomón doscientos paveses de oro extendido: seiscientos [siclos] de oro gastó en cada pavés.
17 And for the three hundred crescent-shaped shields of tested gold, there were three hundred minas of gold covering one shield. And the king placed these in the house of the forest of Lebanon.
17 Asimismo trescientos escudos de oro extendido, en cada uno de los cuales gastó tres libras de oro: y púsolos el rey en la casa del bosque del Líbano.
18 Also, king Solomon made a great throne from ivory. And he clothed it with a great quantity of red gold.
18 Hizo también el rey un gran trono de marfil, el cual cubrió de oro purísimo.
19 The throne had six steps, and the summit of the throne was rounded in the back section. And there were two hands, on one side and the other, holding the seat. And two lions were standing beside each hand,
19 Seis gradas tenía el trono, y lo alto de él era redondo por el respaldo: y de la una parte y de la otra tenía apoyos cerca del asiento, junto á los cuales estaban colocados dos leones.
20 with twelve little lions standing upon the six steps, on one side and the other. No similar work has been made, ever in any kingdom.
20 Estaban también doce leones puestos allí sobre las seis gradas, de la una parte y de la otra: en ningún otro reino se había hecho [trono] semejante.
21 Moreover, all the vessels from which king Solomon would drink were of gold. And all the items in the house of the forest of Lebanon were of the purest gold. There was no silver, nor was any accounting made of silver in the days of Solomon.
21 Y todos los vasos de beber del rey Salomón eran de oro, y asimismo toda la vajilla de la casa del bosque del Líbano era de oro fino: no había plata; en tiempo de Salomón no era de estima.
22 For the navy of the king, once every three years, went with the navy of Hiram by sea to Tarshish, bringing from there gold, and silver, and elephant tusks, and primates, and peacocks.
22 Porque el rey tenía la flota [que salía] á la mar, á Tharsis, con la flota de Hiram: una vez en cada tres años venía la flota de Tharsis, y traía oro, plata, marfil, simios y pavos.
23 And so, king Solomon was magnified above all the kings of the earth in riches and in wisdom.
23 Así excedía el rey Salomón á todos los reyes de la tierra en riquezas y en sabiduría.
24 And all the earth desired to see the face of Solomon, so as to hear his wisdom, which God had granted to his heart.
24 Toda la tierra procuraba [ver] la cara de Salomón, para oir su sabiduría, la cual Dios había puesto en su corazón.
25 And each one brought him gifts, vessels of silver and of gold, clothing and weapons of war, as well as aromatics, and horses, and mules, throughout each year.
25 Y todos le llevaban cada año sus presentes: vasos de oro, vasos de plata, vestidos, armas, aromas, caballos y acémilas.
26 And Solomon gathered together the chariots and horsemen. And he had one thousand four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen. And he placed them in the walled cities, and with the king at Jerusalem.
26 Y juntó Salomón carros y gente de á caballo; y tenía mil cuatrocientos carros, y doce mil jinetes, los cuales puso en las ciudades de los carros, y con el rey en Jerusalem.
27 And he caused silver to be as abundant in Jerusalem as stones, and he supplied a multitude of cedars like the sycamores that grow in the plains.
27 Y puso el rey en Jerusalem plata como piedras, y cedros como los cabrahigos que están por los campos en abundancia.
28 And horses were brought for Solomon from Egypt and from Kue. For the merchants of the king were buying these from Kue. And they paid out the established price.
28 Y sacaban caballos y lienzos á Salomón de Egipto: porque la compañía de los mercaderes del rey compraban caballos y lienzos.
29 Now a four-horse chariot would be sent from Egypt for six hundred shekels of silver, and a horse for one hundred and fifty. And in this manner, all the kings of the Hittites and of Syria were selling horses.
29 Y venía y salía de Egipto, el carro por seiscientas piezas de plata, y el caballo por ciento y cincuenta; y así los sacaban por mano de ellos todos los reyes de los Hetheos, y de Siria.
